ABOUT ME
I have always been passionate about foreign languages and the audiovisual world. I studied Translation and Interpreting in Barcelona and I specialized in Audiovisual Translation by taking a Master's Degree later on. My language combination is EN/FR>CA/ES and I started my career as a translator working in-house at a software localization company in Barcelona and one year later a wonderful opportunity as an in-house editor took me to Chicago. Now I'm based in London and working as a Video-On-Demand Project Manager. Keep exploring my site to learn more information about me!
